1. Brad Blunt OAS – Division of School and Community Nutrition BOY July 25……………….Session Begins 9:05 AM

2.  Importance of data quality  Data Integrity  Prevention and Monitoring Brad Blunt

3. Data Quality Assessment KEES Food Service P-20 Initiative Brad Blunt

4. Data Integrity: Entry of Student Information Brad Blunt

5. Entering new students is a tough job! 1. “How do you spell your name?” -Catherine, Cathy, Cathie, Cathey, Kathy, etc. 2. Missing SSNs -Immigrants often do not have an SSN 3. Transferring students/No Shows -Transient nature with some students increases probability of not identifying them using student locator --Different parent/guardian enrolls them --Provides nickname or middle name in lieu of birth name SSN Brad Blunt

6.  Enrollment forms should clearly state the format and type of info  Student’s legal name  Last Name, First Name, Middle Name, Suffix (Jr., Sr., etc.)  Optional Info Nickname  SSN - -  DOB ___ /___ /_____ (Month / Day / Year) Takeaway: How might your enrollment form be changed to more clearly ask for information? Brad Blunt

7. Standard Key points: No punctuation Father’s last name followed by mother’s last name Consistent – Discuss KDE data standards with all staff, including food service dept./FRAM Coordinator Checked – Verify data entry for accuracy Brad Blunt

8. Go back to the source  Follow KDE data standards regarding enrollment of new students  http://education.ky.gov/districts/tech/sis/pages/ksis -data-standards.aspx http://education.ky.gov/districts/tech/sis/pages/ksis -data-standards.aspx  Highlight the benefits -What’s in it for me? (WIFM) Brad Blunt

9. Sources to identify errors in student demographic info includes: Parents – “That’s not my child’s name” Students Food Service Transfer requests Takeaway: What’s your feedback loop to identify errors? Brad Blunt

10. Data Errors: Solutions for identifying and resolving with POS and IC Brad Blunt

11.  All districts must have set up a new data import mapping in IC for SY 13-14  Reference documents are under: http://education.ky.gov/federal/SCN/Pages/ Technical-Reference.aspx http://education.ky.gov/federal/SCN/Pages/ Technical-Reference.aspx Brad Blunt

12. Goal: Assign meal status to students in IC based on data from POS Issue: Data integrity issues prevent meal status into IC Brad Blunt

13. Food service POS and IC share information based on state student identifier (SSID) Uniquely identifies the student Multiple reasons for data synchronization errors (and thus missing meal status in IC) Solution depends on the originating issue Brad Blunt

14.  Campus tracks the status of the data import from POS ◦ Path: FRAM > Eligibility Import Wizard > Scheduled Imports – Scheduled Import Logs Brad Blunt

15.  Scheduled Import Log ◦ ‘Successful’ means the data imported in ◦ Review both ‘Unsuccessful’ and ‘Successful’ import logs to search for data import errors Click on the task name to see the details Click on the log file to review the data synch report Brad Blunt

16. Focus on any errors/warnings Preschool student SSNs! These should have SSIDs: follow KDE data entry instructions for enrolling preschool students in Infinite Campus Duplicate SSIDs; students need to be merged Warnings are for FYI only; can generally be ignored Brad Blunt

17. IssueResolution State ID “XXXXXXXXXX” not foundDetermine student SSID in IC and then assign that SSID in POS; If student is enrolled then assign SSID to student following KDE data standards Multiple matches found for State Student ID “XXXXXXXXXX” Merge records in Infinite Campus following district policy on merging Record contains End Date before Start Date Ensure the data import mapping has the correct school year chosen in the Eligibility Import Wizard; Verify the POS data extract file is for SY 13-14 ERROR ##### Invalid [FieldName]Locate the errant record: review the data import mapping to ensure all data values are mapped WARNING XXXXWarnings are for your info: can be viewed and generally ignored Brad Blunt

18. Monitoring and Prevention: Keeping data synchronization matching Brad Blunt

19.  Recommendation: Monthly monitoring of data synchronization ◦ Set up recurring appointment on Outlook calendar at least  Reconciliation between POS and Infinite Campus on meal status counts at least twice a year (i.e., October qualifying data & April DC Reporting) ◦ Meal status counts (Free, Reduced and Paid) should be reasonably similar accounting for withdrawn & new students, those not in Campus that are in POS (vice versa), etc. Brad Blunt

20.  Follow KDE data standards on enrolling new students ◦ Ensure thorough search is performed on existing students  “How close am I?” ◦ Check with Food Service Director (FSD) to obtain free/reduced percentage from POS: systems should closely match each other  Joint ownership of data ◦ IT staff for technical assistance and FSD for meal status Brad Blunt
